Nigerian man has been arrested in eastern France after being found
with condoms stuffed with 79,000 euros ($90,000) hidden in his stomach,
customs officials said Monday.
According to AFP, the yet to be identified Nigerian man was
arrested Saturday in Strasbourg, had another 13,000 Swiss francs (11,900
euros, $13,500) concealed in his clothes, the officials said.
The man told customs agents that he lived in Spain and worked as a
dishwasher at a restaurant in the Balearic Islands. Things went from bad
to worse after a sniffer dog also detected marijuana on the banknotes
hidden in his clothing.
That led to an X-ray that revealed the presence of nine condoms stuffed with bank notes in the man’s intestines.
He has been charged with laundering drug money and lying to customs authorities.
